Need "Sugar Kills" card concept.

Could be

• overwhelming pile of granulated sugar (towering over a person, about to topple on them)
• a pile of sugar cubes, with skull/crossbones on each
• or...

and also point "Buy" to the list of care cards items versus directly to the full pack.

Need a section on 'How to Use' the care cards... with picture, scenarios, etc.

http://carecards.me/zen
http://carecards.me/change
http://carecards.me/surgery
http://carecards.me/mentalhealth
http://carecards.me/nutrition

... all need to wind up at the correct anchor in /packs

Watching @bethherlin interact with people on Twitter by quoting care cards(for instance, https://twitter.com/beth11herlin/status/755574139193290753) makes me think that we should enable twitter cards to show up for the individual care cards.

For instance, linking to http://care.cards/move-more would give you the twitter card version of the Move More card.

It is not a small task because Twitter Cards (And Facebook and so on) don't seem to run javascript, so a frontend heavy website won't really work.

I've played a bit with Jekyll (my go to for things like this) and have managed to have it generate (very basic) web pages for each of the cards with the appropriate meta tags.

I have the barebones example at https://github.com/bsalinas/example-care-cards.

Because it uses a custom plugin (https://github.com/avillafiorita/jekyll-datapage_gen) the site can't be hosted on Github Pages so I've uploaded a static copy of the content at https://github.com/bsalinas/public/.

This will let you go to https://cards-dev.twitter.com/validator and type in some of these:
http://bsalinas.com/public/nurses-save/
http://bsalinas.com/public/ask-questions/
http://bsalinas.com/public/examine-yourself/

You'll get an ugly twitter card (need to get smaller versions of the care cards), but it is a proof of concept.

If this is something you're interested in, I'd be happy to put some time against it. Given the way the current site is structured, it probably wouldn't be a huge endeavor to port the site to something like Jekyll. It could also be achieved by adding a PHP (or other) server in the mix.

What people are saying…

We need to prescribe these simple, beautiful recipes for health to our patients and our loved ones.

• Roni Zeiger, M.D., former Chief Health Strategist at Google, co-founder of Smart Patients

People are thirsty for health advice. They read, search online, and wonder: Am I doing OK? Am I doing the right things for my health? What if, when someone asks the universe (read: the internet), for health advice, they got back a quick tip, backed by evidence?

• Susannah Fox, Digital Health Strategist

"The Care Cards deck exudes its own geeky charm."
If A Picture's Worth 1,000 Words, Could It Help You Floss?

• National Public Radio

"The cards work because they focus on routine and are designed to be user-friendly. Each card uses beautiful-but-accessible art, and the text is short, simple, and clear."
Turning Advice into Lifestyle

• Patient Safety and Quality Healthcare Magazine

"The ultimate goal [of the Care Cards] is to inspire us to be self-monitoring, self-empowered patients. If we do this, we will be the change the U.S. health system needs."

Should initially go to our Prefundia site:
http://prefundia.com/projects/view/care-cards/5723/

Then once Kickstarter goes live, we'll shoot them to KS.
Finally, once we have them in hand, a link to Amazon.

Next to the twitter + facebook icons below each card, we need a download icon (in a similar blue circle)... where that downloads the large jpg or png file from github.
